Big Battlefield (大戦場, Large Battlefield) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was revealed for Ultimate during the Nintendo Direct of E3 2018.

Stage overview

Big Battlefield is a bigger version of Battlefield, originally designed for 8-Player Smash. With respect to the original Battlefield, the main platform of Big Battlefield is wider and there are six floating platforms instead of three, arranged in a pyramid formation.

Visually, Big Battlefield still takes place in a futuristic ruins setting, with crumbled buildings on floating islands in the background. However, it now floats above a large waterfall, and large chunks of ice or crystal are present both below and on the right side of the stage.

Ω form and Battlefield form

Big Battlefield's Battlefield and Ω forms are exactly identical to regular Battlefield's.

Tournament legality

Big Battlefield is banned from tournaments, the reason being that it is simply too big for a normal match; faster characters can abuse the size of the stage to run away and win by Time out. Additionally, the platform layout allows Circle Camping. However, the stage's size can be considered acceptable for 3 vs 3 or 4 vs 4 matches.
